Chapter 676: Hey, I don’t sleep around so easily
“Fa-fascinating?”
His face turned into the character “囧”.
“Are you sure you picked the right words for that sentence?”
It sounded weird coming from the most charming girl in SAO.
“You should feel proud!”
Asuna glanced at Wu Yan.
“This is the first time I gave out an evaluation on the spot like this.”
Wu Yan’s 囧 deepened.
“You’re telling me you randomly came up with that assessment?”
“Don’t take it so seriously...”
Asuna slapped Wu Yan’s shoulder.
“At least, your life is certainly more interesting than mine...”
“Is that so?”
Wu Yan turned his head the other way.
“I am sure in the other players’ eyes, the great and mighty Asuna-sama, the Flash is an outstanding person. Thousands of players idolized you. With the looks and the strength, I am sure there are many players who look at your life with admiration. You’re working hard and you’re attractive at the same time.”
“Really?”
Asuna sighed as she looked up at the sky.
“I hope they won’t be disappointed in the future...”
From Asuna’s perspective, her life is about as dull as it can get. It’s about clearing floors after floors. Others might think she’s living it up but this kind of life slowly burned her out.
If at all possible, Asuna would opt for a peaceful life. She likes cooking, doing chores, and drinking tea with her friends. She’s a prime candidate as a wife.
Granted, had SAO not turned into a death game, she would have enjoyed going on raids with her friends and hanging out in this otherwise great virtual game world.
Wu Yan yawned and he struggled to find a comfortable spot on the hard and cold slab of the crystalline structure behind him.
Is this any different from sleeping on the hard ground?
Wu Yan helplessly sighed and he started looking around when he spotted Asuna’s lap. His red eyes glinted and he grinned. The next instant, he moved.
In front of a very shocked Asuna, Wu Yan laid his head on her lap.
He made a lap pillow out of her lap.
“Y-y-you!”
Asuna’s porcelain white face turned redder and redder until she looked as red as a tomato. Steam rose up from her head.
“What are you doing?!”
Asuna yelled as she freaked out. She lifted him by the head.
“Get up!”
Too bad she’s too weak to go against Wu Yan’s brute strength, try as she might, she couldn’t lift Wu Yan’s head by even a little.
“You should feel proud!”
Wu Yan threw her words back at her.
“I don’t just randomly choose a lap to sleep on...”
“Wh-what?...”
Asuna is very angry but she is just as helpless. Once this guy fools around, nobody in this game can stop him, including Asuna.
“Well, I am telling the truth...”
Wu Yan nudged the back of his head against the soft and supple thighs supporting him. Her smooth and bouncy skin was enjoyed to the fullest. Meanwhile, Asuna continued to blush intensely.
“I never slept on a lap pillow before...”
There are beautiful girls all around Wu Yan. Just counting his wives alone, there are already close to 10. Let’s not talk about the number of times he visited their secret gardens with his two sacks of seeds, we all know how generous he can be in this department. However, it’s the truth that he didn’t get the lap pillow treatment from Hinagiku & co. In other words, the relationship between the girls in his harem progressed too fast for him to slowly enjoy other intimate actions like a lap pillow.
Sometimes, Wu Yan wondered if maybe the relationship between him and his harem progressed too quickly. He would like to enjoy other displays of affection. This is not to say they didn’t share a blissful life together. He always made sure to keep the girls happy. But, along the way, he had to give up on other events like this one.
Asuna is the first girl to give Wu Yan a lap pillow. Of course, Wu Yan had to bulldoze his way to get such a fabulous treat.
Asuna gnashed her teeth as her scarlet-red face looked like blood could drip out any moment. She didn’t push Wu Yan away, she furtively sneaked a peek at Wu Yan, and then she turned her head the other way in a panic. She wanted to vent her feelings as well.
This is your first time sleeping on a lap pillow? This is my first time giving a lap pillow too, you know?!
The two of them created a situation where their warmth started to make the creeping darkness and cold snow around them retreat.
Asuna felt the hard solid object on her lap but she kept mum. A faint sense of panic grabbed her. She was as quiet as a church mouse but she also didn’t dare to lower her head.
She’s too afraid to look at the piercing red eyes that can make her heart go out of sync.
The song of snow and wind continued. The two stayed like this in peaceful silence. They continued to wait like this...
After quite some time, Asuna lost focus and she subconsciously moved her eyes downwards after gathering the courage to do so. She was petrified when she saw what the guy was doing down there.
Wu Yan already closed his eyes and his breathing became slower, his chest slowly rose and settled in a peaceful manner. Yes, the guy is already in the sandman’s kingdom.
She giggled after looking at his face.
“Well, what a waste of time, I wasted so much time thinking about responses when you’re already fast asleep...”
Asuna poked Wu Yan’s cheek with a dissatisfied tone.
“Doesn’t that make me look silly?”
Irritated by this, Wu Yan creased his brows and he mumbled something which made Asuna pull away from his face. Then, the guy returned to his peaceful sleep.
Asuna stared at Wu Yan’s sleeping countenance in a daze as she reached out touch Wu Yan’s cheek.
“So there are still people in this world who can show this kind of expression...”
Asuna said while fixing her gaze on his face.
“How can you sleep so peacefully?...”
Asuna teased him.
“I can’t sleep so easily out in the open. Even in a safe place, I would still go to bed worrying about whether or not a monster will creep into my room and kill me...”
“I don’t there’s anyone in this world other than you who can sleep like a baby in a place like this.”
Using him as her private venting tool, she continued speaking as if Wu Yan is wide awake. She dumped out all her internal worries.
Her anxiety, her worries, her sadness, her lamentations.
Without knowing it, she spewed everything she experienced in these two years inside the death game known as SAO. It’s only in times like this that Asuna can spit everything out when no one is around to hear it.
After getting it out of her system, strangely enough, her worries appeared less scary...
Asuna didn’t notice the person sleeping on his lap started to breathe at a faster rate.
When the fatigue finally caught up with her, Asuna stopped as she started to doze off. Finally succumbing to the sleepiness, she entered a sleeping state.
Almost at the same time, Wu Yan opened his eyes as he slowly got up. He placed Asuna on his chest as he took out a coat to cover both of them.
“Good night...”
